Yes the last month I have had two episodes, actually three where my arms feel very very heavy and the hurt and it radiates to my back. It only last a couple minutes but very painful . It is so intense I panic. I’ve had some pain in my right kidney For about a year now if had trouble making it to bathroom, I mean I have to run My doctor at the time said it was my age probably. I have HPV. And have had skin cancer actually three times the first time 20 years ago was the worst but have had it a couple times since. I’m on mirapex for RLS and Prozac mm

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The pressure and pain in arms are seemingly related to underlying nerve compression issue at proximal level of nerve supplying territory.

After thorough clinical examination, one may need to get evaluated for nerve conduction study, MRI or else to figure out the same.

Thanks.
